What can I say Benny? I'm honoured to be your best man. And by best man, I don't mean half best man. Let's be honest with ourselves, Jared really isn't that cool of a guy in any way. Haha I'm just kidding around, I love both of you.

In all seriousness, Ben you've always been there consistently supporting me. From living together in college, to helping day in and day out with my recovery from my major brain surgery, to encouraging me to go to class (which I appreciate the encouragement, but I never went to class; that was just a lost cause), be smart with my money (which I followed up with by getting a new credit card every spring break to go to the Bahamas).

There were several months post brain surgery where I really needed a good buddy to just talk to, and you were always the one to listen. Besides little things throughout college like blasting Power Man 5000 at 6 A.M. on a school night, to spilling red hunch punch in my room which completely covered the carpet, to hiring our landscaping guy for one of our parties, you really have always dealt with the random off the wall events better than anybody could have.

Most people would have either left the house, or even burned it down for that matter. I'm going to stop story time now because I'll go on forever.

Ben, I just wanted to say from the bottom of my heart that I will love you forever, and I look forward to seeing you and Ashley's relationship blossom throughout the years to come. I love both of you, and we give hugs around here.
